I am another 4 am-er!! My husband thinks I am crazy but I love the darkness, quiet time and peace I get from taking that time for myself each day.

[@StationeryAt4]

A fellow 4 am-er! I love it. Also love that it keeps my love of coffee alive and well!

I get up at 445am daily and I love my mornings. I do not meditate but I do journal. I would like to incorporate meditation in the morning.

That's a long prep time! i am up at 4 too and try to include some of those things in my morning ritual. I go for a long walk which helps me focus and reflect and prepare for the day. Because I punch in at 7, I have to do more in the evening before bed which also serves to destress from my day. Thanks for sharing and being so transparent. Look forward to more videos.

Thank you for the kind feedback and for sharing as well. Glad to have you along for the ride. Take care and have a wonderful day!

I am a night owl so going to bed at 9 or 10 is pretty much impossible for me, even if I have a 5 am call. I work in film so my schedule is completely random. Sometimes we start after noon if we need night shots. Sometimes 4 am if we need to do a time-consuming monster makeup or prep an army of extras.

[@StationeryAt4]

That's so cool. Thanks for sharing!

I thought that my need for 2 hours to get out the door in the morning was a lot! I walk the dog first thing, then read over breakfast. It is a lot easier to make time for yourself when you live alone! I need to make time for exercise though.

[@StationeryAt4]

Perhaps I'm high maintenance? lol

[@user-gl5ld9vm7i]

I can't get up that early 😂

[@StationeryAt4]

Baby steps... lol

[@yarning4asmile]

Does your wife like to journal as well? Do you ever have journal time together?

[@StationeryAt4]

She does! However our schedules only seem to align for journaling when we're out of town away from the kids lol.

Havent seen the vid, but my only real question is: when do you go to bed?

[@StationeryAt4]

Hi there. I typically go to bed anywhere between 9 - 10:30pm.
